INTRODUCTION 

The  following  table  shows  that  this  index  is  intended  to  cover 
reports  of  library  commissions,  state  libraries,  university  libraries 
and  the  public  libraries  of  the  United  States  and  Canada. 

When  reports  of  a  library  were  found  to  contain  material  of  gen- 
eral interest,  sufficient  to  warrant  their  inclusion  in  the  index,  all 
the  years  examined  were  listed  in  the  table,  although,  as  in  some 
instances,  a  number  of  reports  in  the  series  are  not  represented  by 
references  in  the  index. 

Several  small  yet  exceedingly  live  libraries  are  not  included, 
because  the  activities  of  these  libraries  appeared  in  short  paragraph 
reports,  no  subject  being  fully  treated;  and  the  plan  of  this  work 
did  not  allow  minute  indexing. 

The  object  has  not  been  to  provide  an  exhaustive  index  of  any 
one  library — one  for  the  benefit  of  the  library  indexed — but  to  make 
available  matter  of  general  interest. 

The  person  seeking  references,  we  will  say,  to  work  with  chil- 
dren, will  possibly  find  only  one  or  two  in  the  reports  of  a  particular 
library,  but  it  has  been  presupposed  that  one  desiring  a  thorough 
acquaintance  would  not  limit  his  study  to  the  entries  appearing  in 
the  index. 

Financial  statements,  lists  of  donors,  routine  reports  upon  the 
work  of  a  library  have  not  been  included,  nor  have  lists  of  books 
purchased,  unless  these  were  of  bibliographical  importance  or  formed 
regular  supplements  of  a  catalogue. 

The  index  aims  to  include  legislation,  historical  sketches,  mono- 
graphs upon  any  subject,  bibliographies,  biographical  sketches,  me- 
morial tributes,  addresses,  dedication  ceremonies,  plans  and  descrip- 
tions of  library  buildings,  by-laws,  rules  and  regulations,  names  of 
librarians,  maps,  portiaits,  illustrations,  all  divisions  of  library  econ- 
omy when  fully  treated,  many  features  of  library  work,  original  or 
unique,  and  curious  items;  in  short,  all  unusual  material  and  all 
matter  not  common  to  all  reports. 

With  reference  to  donations  an  explanation  may  be  necessary. 
The  indexing  in  one  instance  of  a  donor  of  $10,000  and  the  failure 
to  record  a  similar  gift  in  another  may  appear  inconsistent,  but  it 


was  impossible  to  note  every  gift  or  legacy  mentioned  in  reports, 
hence  gifts  have  been  indexed,  as  a  rule,  when  they  were  treated  in 
the  reports  as  matters  of  importance. 

For  brevity's  sake  many  references  are  not  bibliographically  pre- 
cise. For  instance,  in  the  case  of  illustrations  and  maps  references 
are  made  to  the -pages  which  they  face,  omitting  the  word  facing. 

A  prophetic  knowledge  of  the  future  development  of  libraries 
would  no  doubt  give  large  significance  to  certain  omitted  items. 

Direct  access  to  very  early  reports  of  certain  libraries  has  been 
impossible,  and  these  reports  have  been  examined  for  the  indexer 
by  persons  connected  with  those  libraries.  In  a  number  of  instances 
full  information  could  not  be  obtained. 

In  addition  to  the  list  of  libraries  indexed  there  is  given  an  alpha- 
betical key  and  a  list  of  abbreviations  used.
